OneDrive App
15 TopicsAdd Shortcut to Files fails
My wife and I have a family Office 365 subscription. I have shared a folder with her with permissions to edit. She gets the email confirming this and can open the link and see the files in the folder. When she clicks "Add shortcut to My files" she gets a message "1 shortcut wasn't added". This happens using Onedrive web (through Edge) and on the Onedrive app on her iPhone. On the iPhone she hit "Add Shortcut to Files" and it says "By addding "Folder Name" to your OneDrive, you can sync it on your computers with other OneDrive files". When she clicks OK it says "Adding" and then comes up with a message "Something went wrong". Any ideas?2.2KViews10likes13CommentsSearch function on Onedrive for iOS not working
I have noticed that the search function on Onedrive for IPhone has stopped working and wondered if anyone else has had the same problem. I contacted MS support directly from within the app and received a reply which acknowledges that it is a real problem that they are working on but who knows when it will be resolved.748Views6likes13CommentsOneDrive SYNC client not showing 'Shared folder'
The issue of having the 'shared folder turned into an internet shortcut' was solved for me a week ago. as both of the accounts are migrated on new OneDrive (V2) but I'm facing another issue even after migrated to the v2. The problem is, In Windows OneDrive SYNC client, from its settings/account/choose folder, the 'shared folder' is not showing over there. Therefore, I can't choose which folder/file to sync (selective sync that's called), and all the other unnecessary folders into that shared folder, which I don't need or require, are being synced and downloaded on daily basis, eating my bandwidth as well as storage space. I mailed this issue to MSFT but they didn't respond with anything conclusive, except asking to uninstall/reinstall/reset OneDrive, which I already did everything, so posting it here. has anyone else faced or experiecning this same issue? Any workaround? My post in MSFT forum with screenshots here: Check this out for better understanding of this issue. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/onedrive-sync-client-not-showing-shared-folder/cae9231f-4c02-4861-8a3b-aafe7b3e10c5474Views1like2CommentsMy first post got immediately deleted
My first post here was a tech question/bug description related to OneDrive API. The post immediately disappeared and I'm not sure if I should just try posting it again.

Hi, I'm using a private Outlook account on my Android phone. In the past, I added my work account in the OneDrive app for Android. I need to remove this account, but... 1) The OneDrive app only has an option 'Sign out', not an option to remove the account. 2) Excel and Word for Android also show the work account under 'settings', with a red cross. The work account can be removed there, but whenever I choose 'reset Office', the work account returns automatically. 3) The Android Settings have an Accounts option, removing the OneDrive-work-account there also doesn't help, OneDrive still shows the account. I've tried endlessly removing and reinstalling apps, nothing works. Somehow it seems there's a link between the accounts which is restored on each and every occasion. I've seen similar questions, like the one below, but as far as the questions have a solution, it doesn't work in my case. https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/onedrive-for-business/removing-an-account-from-onedrive-for-android/m-p/792926 Any clues?
